president obama cutting to the heart of his decision to openly back marriage equality. been a pretty pivotal year in the long and emotional battle over same-sex unions and this day could be quite a pivotal day. because today the supreme court, the ultimate decider of rights and rules in america, is deciding whether it is finally time to take a stand on gender-based marriage law. and just how big a stand to take. the country, of course, is divided. right now 30 states have their own constitutional bans on same-sex marriage. but nine states plus the district of columbia allow men to marry men and women to marry women. that number grew by three alone just this month. those were voter referendums during the election. nationwide exit polls show slightly more voters than not say same-sex marriages should be legal. you see it there. 49% say yes. 46% say no. which in theory has absolutely no bearing essentially on anything that the high court decides, or does it? we may not actually even find out until monday whether the justices will decide to take the plunge or not into this

that's the big intelligence concern right now. this now has led the pentagon, as i think you would expect, to update its military opings planning so that it has options if president obama were to ask for them. and the big thing here is they now have some lobbyings they're looking at. multily sources of intelligence, they tell us, that they have that shows this activity is taking place. so it's not that president obama has necessarily made a decision to do anything. we don't know that, but what we know now is that inside the u.s. military really stepping up the planning, stepping up looking at the opings so they know how to do this if the president asks. if it seems there was intent by syria to use these weapons on its own citizens, that would be the red line. are we closer to that today? >> you know, we've talked a lot to 13er9s about this, and what people i've spoken to are observing is that red line seems to be being pushed a little bit on both sides. originally when the president spoke about it over the summer, it was any movem

so this is a pretty clean case right here for the court to decide whether they decide it on benefits, whether they decide it on the issue of equal protection. the obama administration has already said, it doesn't think the constitutionality of the defense of marriage act can really withhold this kind of a legal attack. so we'll see, but i think the question you raised, deborah, is the question that is before all of us right now. >> and -- >> if i can get a little technical here. there are ways that the supreme court could resolve both of these cases without engaging the substantive issues. when the court grants certiorari, they have granted in the windsor case, the defense of marriage act case, and the proposition 8 case out of california, they also agreed to decide the question of standing, which is do the -- do the -- are these cases even legitimately before the court? for example, in california, there is now a situation, and it this was the situation when the case was brought, the governor of california, the attorney general of california, all agree that this proposition 8 is uncon
